We were very lucky to have had Nia for our recent house sit. She communicated well before the sit and arrived as planned. We shared a meal before we left which gave us time to get to know her and tell her about the house and our pets. After we left it soon became clear the cats loved Nia and the attention she gave them. We were kept informed throughout her stay with regular updates and video clips of what they were up to and how the garden was growing etc. We highly recommend Nia as a pet/house sitter and we would certainly have her back should the opportunity arise. Thanks again Nia

Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!

Stefany helped me out big time by stepping in when I asked. She's a local sitter and I wasnt' having any responses so I contacted her and she fit me into her schedule even during the holidays and right after another sit across the country. She took great care of my two cats and home and I very much appreciate it!

Best house and pet sitters we've ever had! They definitely gave our cat and dog plenty of love and attention.

We were so pleased to meet John and Trisha! We had them come in a day before we left and enjoyed a nice meal with them and they got to meet Delilah (even if she didn’t seem interested) but she soon warmed up to them - except for the Cat Videos - she wasn’t very interested 🤣 When we returned our home was so clean (probably cleaner than we left it)! We got frequent pics and updates on our Princess! They also left us with a Progress Report with Delilah’s activities and what they did at the house before they left. We would highly recommend John & Trisha if you are lucky enough to have them apply for a House Sitters job! Bill, Kathy & Delilah 🐈⬛❤️

Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.

Hannah and Joseph were brilliant sitters - totally reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to queries and their past experience with dog/ housesitting was very apparent. Our 2 dogs and 1 cat were well looked after and the house was spotless on our return. We are totally happy to recommend them.
Erin
Ruthee was a fabulous pet sitter for our three cats while we were gone for a month. Prior to the sit, she was consistent and communicative; she even came over early for a meet and greet to learn the routine. During the sit, she took great care of our three cats by playing with them (she made a fun cat toy!), scooping litter, feeding and watering them, and sent us text updates and pictures. We came home to happy fur babies and a clean home. She left the place very tidy which was greatly appreciated! We are so thankful for Ruthee and would recommend her should the opportunity arise. Your fur babies would be lucky to spend time with her. Thank you again for everything, Ruthee!

Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!

Heidi was an outstanding cat sitter for my Luna! She was very communicable via calls or texts. She followed all my guidelines for feeding and care of Luna. Luna was very content when I arrived home thanks to Heidi! My home was immaculate when I arrived and she did some snow shoveling. She even pulled a large broken tree branch off my roof following a windstorm. I hope Heidi is available for my next trip because she is awesome. Jim
Cat Sitting FAQs

Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least £15 per visit, per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being.

Would definitely use again! We have a a pet cat and a pet rat, however sadly our extended family had a little phobia of my rat so we had to look elsewhere for help so that I knew that he was being cared for/cleaned out and given a little fuss alongside my cat in our absence. They were so lovely and both the boys were automatically comfortable and at ease around Jacky, she sent me photos of them every time she came over and told me a little about how they were each day etc. Thank you again :)
Phil and Bev have worked tirelessly to ensure Petpals can continue. Our lovely lady, Lynda, absolutely adores dogs, and is totally committed to them. She has never ending patience with any dogs she looks after, and, for Tess, (our cocker spaniel), it’s like a home from home.
Petpals looked after our two cats at home for two weeks last summer. The whole process was very easy and friendly. The cats were very content when we got back. Much more chilled than they would have been in a cattery. As one of the cats is shy with new people she didn’t show her face for a few days but we got updates via WhatsApp and a photo when she did. Great service!
We've used Petpals for many years now to look after our 2 cats while away, for both long and short trips. Whichever person comes and attends to the cats has always been so kind and given them excellent care, keeping in touch when requested and leaving a thorough account for when we come back. I could not rate this company any higher - our cats are so much happier being able to stay home rather than going through a distressing experience of staying in a cattery.
An excellent service from a lovely company, offering reliability, trust and that personal touch. I would highly recommend to anyone.
We were very impressed with the professionalism and caring that was shown to our cat Bobby. Our cat is 17 years old and we found that it was much better to have Petpals ,rather than a cattery, come to our home twice a day. Bobby seemed very content after we returned from our short break and we will definitely use Petpals again as they gave us peace of mind.
Not great communication and found them to be quite dismissive. Won't be using sorry as had a bad experience from the get go.
Always ready to help. Otti lives them.
Brilliant service. Thanks to Phil, Tracey and Nicola

I cannot recommed this place highly enough. My little Zola absolutely loves being here and the staff especially Freya are just phenomenal with her. Its evident by how excited she gets when we park outside. You get a real sense of your dog being really loved on all day and the grounds and facilities are excellent. I love the flexibility of the early and late pick up , so helpful when I have early business trips and get back into Chelmsford late. Zola comes home very happy and very exhausted from a full day. Also love that I get sent pictures of her having a great time every day! Absolutely the very very best
My puppy Austin has just finished his first day at LDDC and i am blown away by how well he was looked after. From the updates and photos of him having the best day ever to the artwork he brought home of his paws, this place looks after your fur babies like their own. The grounds and space is fantastic and the owners Pedro and his wife made us feel so welcome and put our minds at ease leaving Austin for the first time. I would highly recommend this little doggy daycare to anyone. Thank you so much and Austin can’t wait to return again next week. James
This is a truly wonderful and safe place for my precious pup. He LOVES spending the day with his doggy friends and comes home happy and exhausted. The staff here are so wonderful and truly love the dogs they care for. Love getting photos during the day. Highly recommend this day care for your precious pups! Thank you.
My corgi puppy has been going to little doggy daycare for about 2 months now since he was 6 months old. The staff are wonderful and he is always so excited to get out the car and see all his doggy friends in the morning. They send photos of him everyday and he always looks so happy! Definitely recommend.
We loooooove Little Doggy Daycare. Our little Roo is so happy when she arrives! We have photo and text updates on the day, which is so helpful, as our Roo is only a pup and can be nervous socialising. It gave us reassurance that she’s doing ok during the day. We totally relax knowing Roo is safe and having the best time running around and making friends!
We take our cockapoo, Pepper, here a few times a month when we need to go into the office. Pepper gets really excited when we drop her off, so we know she must have a lovely time here. Freya and the rest of the staff are great too, with daily updates with pictures of how Pepper is getting on. Would highly recommend!
Little doggy daycare has been wonderful for my leash reactive pup. I love seeing pictures and videos of her playing with the other dogs. She clearly feels safe and confident there. She has separation anxiety too so can be nervous going in but she loves Freya! Would recommend to anyone looking for a home from home for their pup 😊🐶 …
